GREEN EV: RENEWABLE ENERGY POWERED ELECTRIC VEHICLE

This Project, "Hybridization of Renewable Recharge System in Electric Vehicle" deals with charging the battery on electric vehicles. The energy obtained from the environment is converted into electrical energy to charge those batteries. Wind and Solar are abundant sources of energy available in this environment. But these sources of energy do have some drawbacks in power generation. They cannot generate power continuously because they are dependent on weather conditions. To tackle this problem, two sources were integrated into a single source to boost and charge the batteries used on this vehicle.

H2 : HYBRID VEHICLE FOR THE HANDICAPPED

This is an automatic transmission parallel hybrid car with two sources of power, i.e. the engine and the electric motor. The driver is given the option to choose between the sources of power. The vehicle can be either propelled by the electric motor or the engine, (but not both), at a time. The engine, which has a low cubic capacity, is mounted in the front, in the bonnet area of the car. Two alternators are used which are coupled to the engine through the belt drive ware used for charging the batteries.

The engine and motor are coupled to the gear box through a chain drive. The output of the gear box is coupled directly to the differential assembly through a propeller shaft for propelling the vehicle, thus making it a rear wheel drive car.

DRIVERLESS VEHICLE: MANTRA

This vehicle was designed with three wheels, two wheels at the front and one wheel at the rear for better stability. Powered by a two stoke single cylinder engine, this vehicle can be driven with or without a driver. Wireless modules are used for controlling the vehicle and a wireless camera is used to transmit the audio and video signal for better control.

Features

Remote controlled vehicle - can be used for military surveillance or by differently-abled people
